IMPROVEMENT IN CHURNS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. l l l,555, dated February 7, 1871.

I, the suhscriher, JAMESMCBRIDE, of thaca, Tonpkins county, New York, have invented an Improved Machine for Ohurning, of Which thefollowing is a specifeation:

My object is to enable an operator, seated at his leisure, easily to give a 'eeiprocating motion to the dasher in ehurning; and the nature of my invention will be apparent as I describe it.

Figure 1 Vis a side elevation of my machine; Fig. 2, an end elevation, showing the churn and its innediate connections; Fig. 3, a'view of the hand-lever and its connections, and Fig. 4 a top view of the clasp for the dasher.

In Fig. 1, A is the lever to which the hand of the operator is applied, pivoted at D, and connected by the rod C to the erank D on the wheel E. On the end of the shaft F, holding the wleel E, is the weiglted lever and crank G, which connects with the long rod H, and just above the center of the rod H is a stud, I, from which the rod J extends to, and conneets with, the da'sher-handle K. The rod H slides in a hole in the staffi' L, and a two-parted clasp, M, holds the handle of the dasher.

In Fig. 2, N is the churn, and-the letters already referred to point out the parts already made. The same is true of the part and letters in Fig. 3.

Fig. 4 shows that the clasp M opens and shuts about the handle of the dasher. A suitable frame supports the noving apparatus.

By the hand-lever notion is given to the fly-wheel, from which motion is given the shaft and weighted lever, rods, and to the churn-dasher. v

The' advantages and uses of my invention JAMES- MOBRIDE.
